Gaja is Sanskrit for elephant, and an elephant never forgets. Gaja remembers every release your teams have shipped and every incident that followed — which is why its verdict arrives with reasons attached rather than a score you are asked to trust.
A Gaja preflight verdict is GO, NO-GO or CONDITIONAL computed in seconds from ceremony state, the dependency graph, freeze windows, historical incident rate and blast radius — with every reason cited to the ticket, commit or past incident it rests on.
The tool gave us a number. Nobody could tell me what the number meant or what to do about it.
We overrode the score twice and it never learned anything from being wrong.
A blocked release with no way forward just becomes an argument in a meeting.
A Gaja verdict is not a model guessing from scratch. It is a comparison against what happened the last time this service shipped in this shape, and every claim traces back to the fact underneath it.
Ceremony state, the dependency graph, active freezes, historical incident rate and blast radius for the release.
Gaja weighs this release against what happened the last times this service shipped in a similar shape.
GO, NO-GO or CONDITIONAL in seconds, each reason linked to the signal behind it.
Confirmed incidents and overrides become history that weighs on the next verdict.
Gaja reads what your tools emit and returns a verdict your pipeline can choose to gate on. It is never in the deploy path.
No. The point of Gaja is the opposite: every verdict arrives as reasons in plain language, each naming its source, so you can follow every claim back to the fact underneath it.
You override it with a reason, and the override is recorded. A wrong verdict is almost always a stale gate, a bad dependency edge or an incident attributed to the wrong service — fix the signal and the verdict corrects.
Only if you wire the check into branch protection. By default it is advisory; teams compare its verdicts against real outcomes before enforcing.
